Porcine Antibodies

The porcine is an even-toed hoofed mammal and is one of the most important sources of meat food in the world, with demand comparable to that of cattle. In addition, because of the many similarities between porcine and humans, they can also be used as disease models to study human disease mechanisms and to find new treatments. Therefore, it is important to study the immune response of porcine, especially the effect of common pathogens such as porcine respiratory and reproductive syndrome virus, porcine epidemic diarrhea virus, swine fever virus, porcine circovirus, Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae, Bordetella tracheoseptica on the immune system of porcine. Antibodies are widely used as diagnostic and antiviral reagents in the study of porcine immune response to improve the health status of porcine.

Porcine Antibodies

Like mice, pigs can express five antibodies, IgA, IgD, IgE, IgM and IgG. Studies have shown that the genes encoding the heavy and light chains of porcine antibodies have 30 VH genes, 14-60 Vκ genes, two functional DH genes, one functional JH gene, two functional Jλ genes and five Jκ fragments. Compared to laboratory rodents, pigs can utilize a small number of VH genes to form >90% of the pre-immune antibody repertoire, a pattern that does not change with antigenic diversification.

Currently, there are a variety of porcine antibodies in circulation, including porcine CD marker antibodies, porcine cytokine antibodies, and porcine immunoglobulin antibodies, and so on. These antibodies are used to identify porcine immune responses caused by pathogens in order to effectively manage porcine epidemics and improve pork quality to ensure food safety.
